6. Imperial MNight
Imperial Malaysian Society is proud to present Hero : WANTED, a superhero comedy centred around the choices we make and their consequences, and how even superheroes are not above making the wrong ones.
Meet The Captain, KL’s very own ex-superhero. He’s old, he’s lost his powers, and he smells a lot like mouldy roti canai. As an ex-superhero extraordinaire, he wasn’t always like this, and he’s determined to do something about it. Join him on his journey as he struggles to combat his addictions, that annoying voice in his head and personal hygiene.
But things aren’t going to be so easy. Caught up in the war between 2 rivaling drug lords, who control the very drug he’s dependent on, and armed only with the help of his naive protege and the voice in his head, The Captain’s going to have a superhuman task ahead of him!
Even heroes fall…but do they rise up again?
